When it comes to creating real, lasting change in Ahmedabad, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is not just a mandate—it’s a mission. And driving this mission forward is the Shaksham Foundation, a trusted name in social impact partnerships. With deep local roots and a passion for change, Shaksham Foundation bridges the gap between corporate intent and community needs, helping build a better, more inclusive Ahmedabad—one project at a time.
